Chapter 120 Telegram
People smell good from a distance but stink up close. Wang Lizhen's little mouth moved around. No one in her family recognized her or not, but she brainwashed herself very well.
She felt more and more that Xia Zhizhi was her best friend in life, and she had no recollection of any quarrels they had had before.
She is in poor health and it is normal for her to have a weird personality. I have been running back and forth several times for her. It would be too unreasonable for her to ask for anything else.
After writing the letter, Wang Lizhen's brain was spinning as she excitedly rummaged through the drawers and cabinets at home, even her grandparents' room. She collected all the unopened biscuits, canned food and milk powder in the house, and also took out a new wool sweater her mother had bought for her, packed them into a large package and sent it off.
Her parents looked at the empty cabinet and became more and more certain that their child had fallen in love with someone else. After all, she had always been the kind of person who would kill anyone she liked since she was a child.
When she was young, whenever Cui Zijin came to visit their home, Wang Lizhen would want to stuff a colander into his mouth and pour food into it from a bowl.
It's because I've grown up and become more sensible over the years that I'm not as enthusiastic as before.
When Xia Zhizhi received the package and saw the huge amount of food, she was overwhelmed.
She had stockpiled a lot of these things, but she couldn't finish them all. When she went to the countryside, she opened a can of maltose, which was almost damp, and only half of it was left.
But it's already been sent, I can't send it back, just put it aside for now and find someone to replace it when the time comes.
I bought some mountain products for Wang Lizhen as a return gift, and added a few pounds of peanuts and melon seeds that Ah Ju had roasted for her, as well as preserved fruits, soft candies, and pork jerky, all of which were the little girl's favorites, filling up a big bag.
Anyway, I told my friends in the south that it was given by my friends in the north, and told my friends in the north that it was given by my friends in the south. We have never met each other, but we have blamed each other. It is true that if we are destined to meet, we will not recognize each other, and if we are not destined to meet, we will blame each other even if we are thousands of miles apart.
A few days after Xia Zhizhi sent the package, she received a telegram.
When the postman delivered the telegram, it was already dark and the gate of the educated youth center was closed. Li Mao heard a knock on the door, opened the door and brought the telegram in to her.
I was also thinking, sending an urgent telegram so late at night, could it be that something happened at Xia Zhiqing's home?
Xia Zhizhi really couldn't guess who would send her a telegram. When she opened it, her face looked a little unhappy.
Seeing that she looked unhappy, Li Mao thought something happened at home, so he comforted her: "What's the matter? If there is something wrong at home, you can ask for leave from the team leader. Our team leader is a good person. As long as it does not delay the start of work next spring, he will approve the leave."
Unlike some villages, the team leader was like a villain and was controlled by the educated youth.
There was no work to do, and you had to stay in the village even if you were hungry or cold. There were only a few days of vacation a year, and no extra day would be approved. If you were late when you went home to visit your relatives, you would be given a bad review in the evaluation of educated youth, and your ancestors' graves would be filled with smoke. It was very difficult to deal with them anyway.
But then she thought that Xia Zhiqing didn't work much, so she probably didn't care about these things.
Xia Zhizhi shook her head: "It's nothing, a friend of mine is coming to visit me in a few days, and she's going out alone, so I'm a little worried."
The telegram was sent by Cheng Rong. There were only a few words on the paper, telling Xia Zhizhi the time to pick up the car and asking her to prepare to pick up the car.
Cheng Rong is Xia Zhizhi's pen pal. They met through stamp collecting. From the time they met until now, they have exchanged more than ten letters.
The girl is eighteen years old this year. Her ancestral home is in Shandong and she currently lives in Shanghai. In her last letter, she was still complaining to Xia Zhizhi.
After graduation, she wanted to go to the countryside to support the construction of her motherland, but her parents disagreed. Although her family loved her, they would never let her make the decision on such matters.
Her parents were both military personnel, and they were very ruthless. Not only did they withhold her household registration booklet, they also informed the street office, so it was impossible for her to register secretly.
After being brainwashed many times by Xia Zhizhi, she felt that Cheng Rong didn't have much feelings for her male classmate at this moment.
I guess I've been a good girl since I was young, and I've had enough of this rebellious period. I feel that my parents are authoritarian and undemocratic, and they don't respect or understand me.
Xia Zhizhi also gave her some words of advice in her reply, but the package was still on the way and she would be here soon.
I guess he ran away from home in anger.
As for why she chose this place, Xia Zhizhi guessed that the main reason was that it was far enough.
Her classmates should all be from Shanghai, relatives, and they will be sent back if they go there. So... this place is really a good place to run away from home.
She actually guessed right. Cheng Rong's parents were both in the army. After being in the army for a long time, it was inevitable that they would get used to following orders. When the leader spoke, they would listen to the leader. When they passed the instructions to the subordinates, the subordinates would also obey.
This is fine in the military, but when the child is in his rebellious period, it won't work if you don't communicate well and just give orders.
The rebellious child is like a donkey that has become a spirit.
I was about to move forward, but you pushed me back, so I stood still. My main point is my stubbornness.
Cheng Rong was full and had nothing to do. In the middle of the night, she became angrier and angrier. You didn't let me go to the countryside, but I want to go anyway!
Do you think that I have no way out just because I was told not to sign up to be an educated youth? I have plenty of ways out!
Cheng Rong asked her classmate's parents to write a letter of introduction, put her own little treasury in her pocket, carried her bag, and without even packing her luggage, she sent a telegram to Xia Zhizhi, bought a ticket, and headed north.
As for why she came to find Xia Zhizhi, except for Xia Zhizhi who lived in the countryside, all the other people Cheng Rong knew were in the city.
Xia Zhizhi...
No more exaggerations, really.
Young people are really stubborn. They can travel more than 5,000 miles to meet netizens.
Fortunately, Xia Zhizhi is a woman. If she were a man, she would come empty-handed and would have to go back with at least two babies, and one in her belly.
Xia Zhizhi didn't want her to come, not because she didn't like Cheng Rong. In fact, she quite liked cute girls. She didn't want her to come for any other reason but because she was too lazy to take care of her.
But she's already on the bus, and it's impossible to call her and ask her to go back. I just hope she has a safe journey and doesn't get kidnapped along the way.
After all, if someone kidnapped you now, it would be difficult to find you back.
Life was originally very leisurely, but when I saw Cheng Rong was coming, I suddenly felt that time was running out.
She let Ah Ju out and asked Ah Ju to pack up the bedding and clothes.
This unlucky girl came in a hurry and probably didn't pack too much luggage. If it snows, she will be frozen hard.
Ah Ju packed up all the food and daily necessities and stacked them on the box. Seeing that it was not too late, they went into the city and went straight to the Du family.
She estimated that their wounds should have healed almost completely, so she went to train them some more.
When Cheng Rong comes, she may not be able to spare the time to go. After all, the Du family has paid her a lot of protection fees. She can't just take the money and not do anything, as this will affect her reputation.
